Does the 2008 Acura TL have a timing chain or belt?
All the Acura motors listed in my book show a chain. The water pumps are driven by a serpentine belt. Water pumps only need changing when they leak out of the drain ho0le underneath or become noisy from failing bearings.

Faulty main relay
Order the main fuel pump relay from any Honda parts. Easy to replace. However, be aware that it might be the ignition switch, which is not difficult be not like the relay.

Car won't start
Sound like your timing belt. Take the top cover off, and see what shape that timing belt is in. If it's gone, i think you have anon interference engine, as most Hondas do, so replacing tghe belt and the timing belt components (idler pulley, tensioner and water pump while you're down there) will solve your problem.

I cannot get what I feel is a good firm pedal. I
i say you are wrong. if the brakes are hard, pumped 3 times
or more after engines stalls, that hydraulic system is not with air
when the booster is dead, the system reverses to 1929 brakes.
err 1965? with dual brakes......
so it's a booster /vacuum issue.
some booster need calibration, not just thrown on.
if you run all the FSM booster checks, read the FSM??????
Factory service manual???
worse of all , you never said why you were bleeding at all.
it just one day, got funky
it needed 2 year bleeding, (like i do)
you replaced something
did you read the pages on ABS and all the steps in bleeding
for ABS, some require a special scan tool.
RTM , no , read it twice.
did you get air in front of Mr. ABS modulator brick?

Need radio code for my Acura
You need to get the serial number off the sticker attached to the radio. It will require pulling apart your dash. Call an Acura dealership with that serial number and they should be able to provide you the code. Or you can take it directly to the dealer but you will be charged labor.

You cannot release the brakes on this year vehicle ,its a dealer only job as the software controlling the ABS is encrypted so you cannot push the pistons back without releasing the ABS which can only be done with the dealers computer

I have a 2008 acura tl-s with 7600 miles on it. I
The tab is to let you know when you need brake's, it will make an ugly squeeky sound when it rubs on the brake rotor, that you will want to have it check out, I think there trying to get over you, but that's only my guess, with out me looking at it. Good luck.
